Manage that Small Library

Small Libraries: Organization and Operation
Sager
1992

Submitter: I dug this relic out of our library science collection. It’s from 1992. I’m sure current librarians and librarians in training could benefit from this book’s advice, including how to type a catalogue card and how to keep your date stamp properly inked.

Holly: Wow, 1992? I’m surprised it’s that recent! Still, 20 years in library land is a long time. I guess if the author truly means “small libraries,” they weren’t necessarily automated in 1992, though. If they’re tiny libraries, they may never get away from catalog cards.

Folks, please remember to weed your professional collection. And, what the heck – give ’em a read now and then too.
